PWA, or Progressive Web Application is an application written in a web language (JavaScript + frameworks), which works as a native mobile or desktop application. Namely, it displays notifications, works offline as well as in the background, and can use native features such as a camera, geolocation or gesture navigation. At the same time, in contrast with an app, you don’t have to download it.

The application written in PWA combines the best facilities of using the internet not only through the browser but also through the application. Just like the browser, it allows easy access directly from the search engine and doesn’t require any additional installation steps. And when it comes to the application, it enables you to use the native functions of the mobile device (push notifications, camera, QR / bar codes, geolocation) to increase engagemen.

Yes. All modern mobile and desktop internet browsers (including Microsoft Edge) do support the technologies used to build the PWA and the standard itself. Obviously, the best support can be found at source, in Google Chrome.

Sure, if a given site meets the requirements of the PWA Checklist and passes Google Lighthouse benchmark. Of course, we aren’t taking into account devices with outdated versions of operating systems.

The average duration of such a project is about 3 or 4 months. When it comes to ready-to-use applications. 1 Progressive Web Apps 1-2 Months.

While a Progressive Web Apps costs between $2,000 and $10,000, many businesses will only need the PWA – by saving over developing a website and a native application separately.
